20120030495 | Clock Distribution in a Distributed System with Multiple Clock Domains Over a Switched Fabric - System and method for synchronizing devices. A device reads a first counter coupled to and associated with a master clock and a second counter coupled to and associated with the device, where the device is one of one or more devices coupled to the master clock and each other via a switched fabric, where each device includes a respective clock, and is coupled to and associated with a respective second counter. Each of the first counter and the second counters is accessible by each of the one or more devices. The device determines a difference between the device's associated second counter and the first counter, and determines and stores a time reference for the device relative to the master clock based on the determined difference, where the time reference is useable to timestamp events or synchronize future events. | 02-02-2012 |

20140071982 | Clock Synchronization Over A Switched Fabric - Devices and methods for synchronizing devices over a switched fabric. A master device maintains a global time, determines a mapping between the global time and a counter of a switch over a memory-mapped fabric, and sends the mapping to a slave device. A slave device maintains a local time, determines a first mapping between the local time and a counter of a switch, receives a second mapping between the counter and a global time of the master device, and synchronizes its local time to the global time based on the first and second mappings. The master and slave device may map their times to the counter by sending respective request packets to the switch and receiving respective completion packets including respective counter values from the switch. The master and slave device may determine respective time values corresponding to the respective counter values based on in-switch delays of the packets. | 03-13-2014 |
20140075235 | Switch for Clock Synchronization Over A Switched Fabric - Devices and methods for synchronizing devices over a switched fabric. A switch receives a request packet from a device, transmits a completion packet to the device, determines an in-switch delay, and stores the in-switch delay. Another switch receives a packet from a first device, forwards the packet to a second device, determines an in-switch delay of the packet, and stores the in-switch delay. Storing of in-switch delays may include adding an in-switch delay to values in one or more transaction delay fields of a packet. Storing of in-switch delays may include storing the delays in a storage element of a switch. In-switch delay may be determined as a difference between a receiving time corresponding to reception of a packet and a forwarding or transmittal time corresponding to forwarding or transmitting of a packet. | 03-13-2014 |
20140122915 | Backplane Clock Synchronization - Techniques and systems for synchronizing a clock via a backplane. An apparatus includes a backplane, a clock coupled to or included in the backplane, a synchronization interface, and at least one processing element coupled to the clock via the backplane and coupled to or including the synchronization interface. The at least one processing element may be configured to compare first time information received from the clock via the backplane with second time information received from the synchronization interface. The second time information may be associated with an external clock. The at least one processing element may determine adjustment information based on the comparison and synchronize the clock with an external clock using the adjustment information, via the backplane. The apparatus may be a PXIe chassis. The clock output may be sent to modules plugged into the backplane in order to synchronize them with an external chassis clock, for example. | 05-01-2014 |

20120255302 | HEATING, COOLING AND POWER GENERATION SYSTEM - A thermal separator/power generator uses the thermodynamic properties of refrigerant substances to provide supplemental heating, cooling, and power without emitting any additional greenhouse gases to the environment by utilizing waste or unused heat energy. This is accomplished through the combined operation of a Rankine Cycle Generator using a refrigerant, preferably a natural refrigerant such as NH3, as the working fluid, and a CO2 a vapor compression heat pump cycle, also called a Thermal Separator Module. The combined system is called a Thermal Separator/Power Generator. It produces electrical power and simultaneously produces secondary heating and water or air cooling as byproducts. In the combined vapor compression heat pump/Rankine power generator cycle, waste heat from external source(s) are recovered and used for heating in the Rankine power cycle. The CO2 heat pump provides cooling and optional space or process heating in lieu of heat boost efficiency for the Rankine power generator cycle. | 10-11-2012 |

20140311731 | CONTROLLED RISE VELOCITY BOUYANT BALL ASSISTED HYDROCARBON LIFT SYSTEM AND METHOD - A hydrocarbon lift system and method for increasing petroleum production from an enclosed subterranean reservoir to the earth's surface comprises a column of buoyant balls in an outer pipe configured to entrain the buoyant balls into a first fluid in an annulus formed with an inner pipe drill string. A pressure differential in the inner pipe with respect to the reservoir via the entrained buoyant balls in a second fluid therein lifts the second fluid and the entrained balls via the inner pipe to increase petroleum production to the earth's surface. A controlled rise velocity of the buoyant balls and the second fluid is predetermined by a ratio of a mass density of the buoyant balls to a mass density of the second fluid being greater than a mass density of the buoyant balls to a mass density of the first fluid for an increase over time in oil production. | 10-23-2014 |
